In the effort to support fusion work with atomic physics data at the Berlin electron beam ion trap (EBIT), we investigate the line radiation from highly charged xenon ions. Xenon has been proposed as a coolant of the plasma edge region of future large tokamaks, such as the International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (ITER). To estimate the radiated power, it is important to obtain information on the ionization state and the transitions producing line emission. With EBIT a narrow range of ion charge states can be selectively produced, stored for extended periods of time and excited by the electron beam. The EUV emission lines have been measured with high resolution over a wide wavelength range from 50 to 800 Å. We observe and identify lines or groups of lines for individual ion charge states ranging from Tc-like Xenon (11+) to Li-like xenon (51+). The data is compared with theoretical calculations using the multiconfiguration relativistic HULLAC computer code (helping to classify the observed lines) as well as measurements at the TFR-tokamak and the W7-AS stellerator.
